17 January 2012 If the funds have come as a loan then same shall be considered as ECB & all conditions relating to ECB shall be applicable to such funds.

If the funds are only for developing software, it could be treated as advance for export of software as a current account transaction. Taxability shall be dependent on terms of contract. In that case the said amount shall be treated as income of Indian subsidiary.
